Ok, I lied!
As part of the Lenny to Squeeze upgrade, I guess
there's a whole new grub boot process!
It tells you that when your system settles down,
you should run "upgrade-from-grub-legacy" ... ok,
I just did that now and I am STUCK!
I guess I have to pick out what device that
grub-install will be automatically run for, but
I don't understand what that means!
I have two hard drives, /dev/sda and /dev/sdb.
My / (root) partition is /dev/sda1. The /dev/sda
has other partitions too. I use /dev/sdb
exclusively for my /home partition, /dev/sdb1.
So what do I pick for this, /dev/sda or /dev/sda1?
Here is what's on the screen:
-----------------------------------------------------
The grub-pc package is being upgraded. This
menu allows you to select which devices
you'd like grub-install to be automatically
run for, if any.
Running grub-install automatically is
recommended in most situations, to prevent
the installed GRUB core image from getting
out of sync with GRUB modules or grub.cfg.
If you're unsure which drive is designated
as boot drive by your BIOS, it is often a
good idea to install GRUB to all of them.
Note: it is possible to install GRUB to
partition boot records as well, and some
appropriate partitions are offered here.
However, this forces GRUB to use the
blocklist mechanism, which makes it less
reliable, and therefore is not recommended.
GRUB install devices:
[*] /dev/sda (250059 MB; WDC_WD2500JS-64ABC2)
[ ] - /dev/sda1 (1998 MB; /)
[ ] /dev/sdb (1000204 MB; WDC_WD1001FBFF-40D402)
------------------------------------------------------
Please help ... this is kinda scary because it seems
like I could break something if I pick the wrong one!
Thanks!
